Idea is a science fiction fanzine by Geri Sullivan.

Geri Sullivan enjoys merging traditional and modern fanzine aesthetics and techniques, and to this end she has created Idea using computer based technologies like PageMaker and Photoshop, and then electrostencilling the final pages on both modern and ancient mimeograph equipment.
